Horoscopes

By Imhotep

Imhotep knows that Ramadan is a good time to indulge in some serious introspection, my dear Rams, as people born under the Cardinal Fire sign of Aries (21 Mar-21 Apr) are sometimes called. The Stars are protecting you. Someone, however, is playing dirty games, don't fall into their trap. You are luckier than you realise. Reach out for a trusted friend.

Your positive energy is just short of overwhelming, my dear Bulls, as people born under the Fixed Earth sign of Taurus (22 Apr-22 May) are sometimes called. This is a great week to reconnect with long lost friends and feel the newness of life. The Stars guide and protect you. Imhotep predicts that this is the time for the best moments of your life. Enjoy.

Cupid's arrows are flying all over the place, my dear Twins, as people born under the Mutable Air sign of Gemini (23 May-22 Jun) are sometimes called. The Stars are lighting your way now and especially augmenting your already excellent intuition and perceptiveness. Search deeper into your soul. Trust in Providence. Answers will come forth in abundance. Enjoy a memorable Ramadan.

You have got a deep intuitive streak, my dear Crabs, as people born under the Cardinal Water sign of Cancer (22 Jun- 22 Jul) are sometimes called. Ramadan's activities aren't that hard to handle. Don't be afraid to face reality, the holy month is not as scary as you think. Divine guidance is at hand. Just make sure you are paying attention to every detail.

In Ramadan a self-destructive streak seeps into your life, my dear Lions, as people born under the Fixed Fire sign of Leo (23 Jul-22 Aug) are sometimes called. Everything seems unmanageable and nauseating. It is time to unearth the emotional kernel of this strife because you do more damage if you do not resolve it. Don't go looking for the ultimate cause.

A worsening of the financial turmoil must not unsettle you, my dear Virgoans, as people born under the Mutable Earth sign of Virgo (23 Aug-22 Sep) are sometimes called. The Stars forecast relief. Perhaps the waiting game put a damper on your devotedness to a weird friend. Be frank. Telling it like it is from your perspective might prompt some honest dialogue.

You have garbled those romantic messages, my dear Scales, as people born under the Cardinal Air sign of Libra (23 Sep-23 Oct) are sometimes called. And now this person is going crazy to decipher them. Don't help them out just yet. Keep their attention on the end of your hook a bit longer. They secretly love this about you. Scales are intrinsic charmers.

You don't always have to know all the facts beforehand when attending an event, my dear Eagles, as people born under the Fixed Water sign of Scorpio (24 Oct-23 Nov) are sometimes called. Be that as it may, someone may not be saying exactly what is on his or her mind. However, the truth will emerge as bright as daylight.

An unexpected turn of events beckons, my dear Centaurs, as people born under the Mutable Fire sign of Sagittarius (24 Nov-23 Dec) like to play fair. Throughout Ramadan Centaurs will have to learn to let go of certain notions they cherish, or family and friends they hold dear. Sometimes what appears to be good luck is actually Stellar intervention.

Your subconscious mind is aware of something that you really ought to know, my dear Sea Goats, as people born under the Cardinal Earth sign of Capricorn (22 Dec-22 Jan) are sometimes called. Relationships take time and effort. Examine your dreams. And, clear your head and doodle or write stream of consciousness this week. Permit the correct interpretation to emerge.

Someone isn't being perfectly clear with you, my dear Water Bearers, as people born under the Fixed Air sign of Aquarius (23 Jan-19 Feb) are sometimes called. And, while that may be frustrating, you can dream up all sorts of great right brain stuff to draw upon later. Be patient about finding your peace of mind. It will happen sooner than you think.

Don't let that toxic co-worker take advantage of your giving nature, my dear Dolphins, as people born under the Mutable Water sign of Pisces (20 Feb-21 Mar) are sometimes called. You don't have time to listen to their complaints now. Set some long-needed boundaries around your workplace. It is fine to tell them you are busy. Revel in your single-minded nature.
